Also, under a waiver system, schools that received a lower grade in 2014-15 than in either of the two previous years could keep the higher grade. The waivers were allowed because the state changed teaching standards and tests in those years.

The Corinth district did not receive a rating because it uses an alternate curriculum. Its rating will be released in November.

The grade each district received in 2014-15 is listed next to the district’s name.
